Diarmuid Connolly finally returned to Gaelic football action this afternoon as St Vincent's beat Castleknock in the Dublin SFC quarter-final.

The Dublin star came onto the pitch for almost 20 minutes in total after replacing Eamonn Fennell, and was involved in some important moves as his side progressed past Ciaran Kilkenny's Castleknock 1-21 to 1-09.
